Snow Chains - Mercedes-Benz 2004 G 500 Operator's Manual

Snow chains

Snow chains should only be driven on
snow-covered roads at speeds not to ex-
ceed 30 mph (50 km/h). Remove chains
as soon as possible when driving on roads
without snow.
i
When driving with snow chains, you
may wish to deactivate the ESP
( page 79) before setting the vehicle
in motion. This will improve the
vehicle's traction.
Observe the following guidelines when us-
ing snow chains:
Use of snow chains is not permissible
on all wheel/tire combinations.
Snow chains should only be used on all
four wheels. With only two chains avail-
able, they should be mounted on the
rear wheels. Follow the manufacturer's
mounting instructions.
Only use snow chains that are ap-
proved by Mercedes-Benz. Your autho-
rized Mercedes-Benz Light Truck
Center will be glad to advise you on this
subject.
Use of snow chains may be prohibited
depending on location. Always check
local and state laws before installing
snow chains.
